Everyone had a turn for their introductions after all the unit managers introduced themselves at the start. There were four questions and all questions were behavioral. Make sure you follow the structure of what happened, what did you do, and what was the outcome? Go through the list of nursing qualities in their interview webinar and pick stories that can cover multiple areas. Personally, the interview was a little stiff overall but just try to really be yourself and showcase who you are. You've worked hard to prepare for this interview and know all your stuff, so don't let the nerves get the hang of you. Good luck everyone 👍
(To be clear, I am speaking from experience from this Spring cohort, Medicine AAU)

Thank you for sharing this! I wonder if they ask you to talk about why nursing in the introduction? Or just tell me about yourself?
TIA! 🙏

They did. We were asked to include why nursing in our intro + any relevant experiences, but I've heard people share other things as well (father of two kids, past military experience, etc.). If something is an important part of who you are and your identity, I think you can be flexible with it and make it your own.
